THE BALL

[mouselikeyoda.livejournal.com]

[Today is the day of the ball, and as such the entry to the Grand Ball Room is wide open, a sound of music echoing through the halls. Not too far away are signs pointing to the general area, intended to help those who are new as well as remind those who are interested.

The room itself seems incredibly clean, thanks to a few enchanted brooms, some of which are still there to clean up any messes from the food. Speaking of food, there is a large table with many delicious meals to choose from, from classy foods to simpler snacks such as chips and even a bit of treats for the children and others who enjoy sweets. And of course, beverages are present, such as punch, water, soft drinks, and even a bit of wine for the adults. Off to the side is an ice box, which may in fact contain sea salt ice cream.

Similar to the last ball, there is a comfortable area set off to the side for those who would rather relax, maybe take a break from dancing. It consists of comfortable chairs and couches for the guests, and even smaller tables for beverages.

Of course, the main attraction is the dance floor itself, which is dimly lit by a chandelier and the occasional candles here and there. The aforementioned music at the moment is classical, a sort of waltz and seems to be coming from no apparent source-- but one may notice somewhere in the ball room that Mickey himself is present, dressed not only in proper masquerade attire, but also with a familiar hat.

Anyone is welcome to enjoy the ball. However, if trouble should arise Mickey does have a Keyblade and would be more than willing to intervene; this is meant for enjoyment, not violence.]

Then you'll just have to practice too so I won't catch up.

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

Maybe I will.

[Laughs a little.]

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[twirl twirl.]

And then you can teach me other dances too.

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

[Is impressed.]

Of course.

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[grins and keeps twirling because twirling is fun.]

...can I ask you something?

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

[She's, getting a bit dizzy.]

S-sure.

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[oops. stops twirling?]

What would you do if I turned into a vampire?

[he's just curious.]

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

[Ah, that's better. She blinks.]

...A, vampire?

[...That was, slightly random. To her at least.]

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

Yeah. What would you do?

[surely she doesn't remember about that one time when he let himself get bitten by one.]

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

[Yes, she does remember.]

Well, I'm not really sure. I suppose I'd be kinda worried.

[Cause, you know. Blood drinking. Not nice.]

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[his thoughts exactly.]

Worried about what?

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

Well, you'd have to drink blood right? And you wouldn't be able to go out in the sunlight. And, well, I guess I'd just worry.

[Cause she worries a lot.]

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[yes, she does. she worries too much.]

But I'd have powers and be able to heal myself. Wouldn't it be worth it?

[because he really tries to convince himself that it wouldn't be, so he shouldn't regret rejecting the (joke) offer.]

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

You'd be immortal, right?

[Here's her final, "I dont like the idea" comment coming up.]

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

I guess. But I might already be that. I don't know what I am or how I work.

[and so he wouldn't be able to be sure if it would even be possible become a vampire.]

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

Hmm. I dont think I'd like to be immortal.

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

...why not?

[stops dancing because apparently the music stopped a while ago and he didn't notice until now. and right then, the next song starts, but he doesn't move.]

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

Well, you'd live forever. But the people around you dont.

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

But then I'd just turn them into vampires too!

[he understands all the other arguments against being a vampire, except for that one. never dying would be great!]

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

What if they dont want to be vampires?

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

...but they'd live forever.

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

[...Shrugs.]

Maybe some people would like that. But some people wouldn't.

[Like her, for example.]

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[sighs.]

You're right. It's a terrible idea.

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

[...Feels sorta bad now.]

That's just my opinion though.

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

And you're right.

[not that he seriously considered it, but it was nice to dream.]
